Subhas chandra bose death

It is not surprising that among the stories mystifying Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose’s death, the ‘Baba’ stories appealed more to the people than any others. India being the land of sadhus and mystics it is but natural that people would like to believe that their immortal Netaji would lead an eternal life in the form of a sadhu. It is now a year old that the last of the ‘Baba story’ got rejected officially. On December 16, the chief minister of Uttar Pradesh signed the Action Taken Report and placed in the assembly, the government’s acceptance (स्वीकार) of the cabinet’s approval (अनुमोदन) to the findings of the Justice Sahai Commission of Inquiry. The report stated that Gumnami-baba was a “follower of Netaji”, i.e. Gumnami-baba was not Netaji. The commission was set up in 2016 on the order of the Allahabad high court, to identify a mysterious sadhu whom some believed to be Netaji, who died at Faizabad on September 16, 1985. Gumnami-baba was not the first or only sadhu who was portrayed as Netaji by the claimants who believed that Netaji did not die in a plane crash at Formosa in 1945. The Saulmari sadhu In 1959, a sadhu at Saulmari in Cooch Behar district of north West Bengal was probably the first to be canvassed as Netaji in disguise. His given name was Saradananda-ji, commonly known as Saulmari sadhu. The belief and inquisitiveness of a large number of people became so strong that in early-60s the central government was forced to send an investigation team to find out the ...

All conspiracy theories should be rejected. Unfortunately, in India there will always be a few people who will deliberately profess this theory for some more time, I fear.- Sugata Bose, Subhas Chandra Bose's grandnephew and historian Everyone in the Bose family except his nephew Sisir, Sisir’s wife Krishna and son Sugata had rejected the air crash theory. The theory did not find much acceptance in Bengal and rest of the country, too. To add to it, there were conspiracy theories, that he had escaped the crash and fled to Russia, and unconfirmed sightings in different parts of the world, sometimes as a prisoner in a Russian gulag or as a godman in Uttar Pradesh. Chandra Kumar Bose, Bose’s grandnephew and chairman of the Netaji Mission, told THE WEEK, “We are very sad that we believed certain theories for all these years. It is [a] bitter truth that we would have to accept that Netaji died due to air crash.” Chandra Kumar is the grandson of Bose’s elder brother and closest ally Sarat Chandra Bose. The two brothers fled Kolkata together. Sisir is said to have helped them in their escape in 1941. Chandra Kumar’s sister Madhuri is an advocate with a United Nations agency. “I have no doubt that Netaji died following the air crash,” she told THE WEEK from Geneva. “I have also recently found clear evidence of his death in the British Library, London.” The evidence she found also concerns her grandfather. “The British Indian government was determined not to release Sarat Chandra Bos...
